Jackson

Last Monday we had a day off of school so Kylea and I decided to go up to Jackson Hole Wyoming with our friends Madison and Jared. It was really cold, but we had fun just walking around to all the little shops, taking pictures, and eating food.

And back to good ol' Idaho all in a days work

Riding Dirty

I would just like to start by saying thank you to Jessie White for once again taking my license away from me. It is true, cops hate me. I swear I drive like a grandma, ask my roommates! Four speeding tickets within four years is not even that many! This time my license has been suspended for 6 months and if I get caught driving within those 6 months I will be arrested, so this is just me practicing my mug shots. Anybody willing to bail me out incase they catch me riding dirty (haha Ryan you were right I guess I am a DGL)? Just kidding mom, I promise I won't drive...but it might be nice to get a new pair of shoes for all the walking I'm going to have to do!

This was me right before mailing my license to the stupid Illinois secretary of state. I needed an appropriate good-bye.

Party

So with our new house comes a reason for a party! Well the real reason for the party was for our friend Jennifer's birthday. She turned 19 last weekend, this is her first semester so she doesn't know a whole lot of people yet but she is Peggy's friend from back home, so we decided to throw her a party at our place and invite a bunch of our friends. It turned out nice and we had alot of fun and I think Jennifer really liked it so it all worked out perfectly!

We made a ton of cupcakes for the party

Getting ready

The birthday girl!

Just waiting for the party to start

Our House

This one is for you Mom. I'm sorry it has taken me so long to finally make this post so you can see pictures of our new place, but I know you know how busy I have been lately. So right now I am sitting in my room getting some pictures together to put up on here and I see that Brittany has a new post she just added an hour ago...so I go to see what she blogged about and how perfect! I see that her and Kristyne just did a tour of our house on a video, which makes things much easier for myself. So if you would like to see our whole house, just go to Brittany's blog and watch her video. But her are a few more pictures that I took...

Our house!

Our door! Our apartment is in the back of the house.

Our cute little kitchen

Here are a few pictures of when Peggy and I were moving in. Yes it is true, we have too much stuff.

We thought we were never gonna get the unpacking done

Brittany and Kristyne's room is on the left, and mine and Peggy's is on the right.

Playing Catch Up

As I was laying here in bed looking through and deleting some pictures off my camera, I started feeling a little guilty for not posting any pictures on here from when I was home for Christmas. I figured the only one who would really care to see them is probably the only person who really enjoys even reading my blog. So these are for you Melissa! Sorry I didn't take more, or any good ones, but I also took some pictures on Christmas morning that I am sure my family would not appreciate me putting up here, so just let me know when you want those for your scrapbook.

Wicked

So I finally saw Wicked! Right before Wicked left Chicago, as well as myself (back to school), and Taylor (for his mission); Taylor got this fabulous idea that he and Josh would would take Allison and I on a double date to go see Wicked. By far the best date idea ever! It was even better than I had anticipated...the play that is. The whole night was awesome!

It started off with a very romantic candle-light dinner that the boys made for us (props to Brother Hardy who really did most the cooking as well as played our own personal server)
